Lyrics
I'll Play The Hero Again
W&M Pat/Steve Jenkins
I want to look, but, I can't look
I'm afraid she's staring back at me
I want to see what I can't see
There she is now, so close to me
My heart cries out you crazy fool
What in the worlds come over you
I'm sitting here like I'm strapped in
Wondering if I'm ever gonna breath again
She gets up from her chair
Now she's comin over my way
I can't think of a single word
That I'm going to say
She sits down in front of me
Places her hand up on my knee
Try to be cool, but, I spill my drink
It's hopeless now, don't try to think
Chorus
I'll play the hero, again
It's just right for me
I'm Humphrey Bogart, I'm Errol Flynn
And just a little bit of Steve McQueen
I'll play the hero, again
I try to be smooth, I wipe up my drink
And then I ask her her name
She just laughs and says to me
That's not why I came
She takes my hand and gives me a smile
If I give her an inch then she'll take a mile
Try to be cool and play my cards right
I won't let her be alone tonight
